Would this be a bottleneck?

xSwamii · Apr 12, 2013

Alright guys, my build as follows.
AMD FX 6100
8 GB of G-Skill RipjawsX Ram
Asus Radeon 7770
600 W Corsair PSU

I was thinking about replacing my 7770 with the GTX 670 or the Radeon 7950. Would my CPU bottleneck the GTX 670 or Radeon 7950? Please help!!!

Probably yes.

Nope, just buy a nice CPU cooler for $35 and do a little overclocking and you'll be just fine. You might not even need to overclock but buy the cooler in case you have to from CM, it's much better than stock cooler anyways.

Even at stock, the FX-6100 won't bottle neck the HD 7770.

The Op is talking about a GTX 670 or the Radeon 7950.

That's what I get trying to commensurate with a 101 degree temperature. My apologies.

For most games no. For some, a bit. OCing would probably help a lot.

101 degree temp? You need some case fans stat!

I don't. Depends on the game. No way he doesn't have an issue with BF3 in multiplayer.
